Slow Performance of my Mac Pro

Hello all.

I recently bought a Mac Pro 1, 1 off eBay which has had some upgrading.

I bought it for my work in which I use Adobe Illustrator CC and occasionally Adobe Photoshop CC.

I thought it would be a dynamic jump in performance from my 1.68GHz Core 2 Duo Mac Mini which had only 2Gb of RAM in the processing speed but it is still frustratingly slow using Illustrator!

The Pro has the following spec which the the gentleman who sold it stated..

2 x 2.66GHz quad core Xeon - 8 cores in total

18 GB RAM (4 x 4GB 4 x 512MB)

640 GB + 1TB Time Machine drive (2 x 500GB striped RAID)

1GB Radeon HD 5770 - PC card not Apple, so no start-up screen

CPUs

2 x Intel 2.66 GHz Quad Core Xeon 5355, which are a drop-in replacement for the original Dual Core 5150s; I have not bothered to flash the ID so the About screen still reports as a Mac Pro 1,1

Memory

The 512MB strips are Apple with the full heatsinks

The 4GB strips are the orange Hynix - I have been running it with 8 x 4GB and the Hynix run at exactly the same temperature as Apple heat-sinked ones - I have screenshots of the temperatures when running under load so just message me if you would like to see them

OS X

As standard these are limited to OS X 10.7 (Lion), but I have the customised boot drive that allows later versions to boot. Currently it has a clean install of 10.10.5 but the Time Machine disk has images for 10.9, 10.10.2 and 10.10.5 (this latest is just an App store install of the Combi upgrade over 10.10.2).

Graphics

This is an HIS Radeon 5570 card with power from the motherboard socket.

The only drawback to running 10.10 is that you don't get the Apple boot screen on start-up, unless you are running genuine Apple graphics cards. I will include the original Apple nVidia GeForce 7300 GT ; this card will show the boot screen for diagnostics, but gives fairly dreadful performance under 10.10

Geekbench

With the 8 cores, the 32bit Geekbench 3 score is 9301 (up from 4817 as standard) - this compares with the fastest(3.1GHz) Early 2015 i7 MacBook Pro of 6513 so you can see this is still a fairly mean machine!

Please could anyone help?

Thanks

Jon

Mac Pro, OS X Yosemite (10.10.5)

You have a lot of adware installed on your Mac. To remove it download and install from http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/52105/malwarebytes-anti-malware. It will remove it for you.

Hi Allan

Are you saying that TuneupMyMac will solve the issue?

No. Just download and run Malwarebytes Anti-Malware.

Allan never said anything about TuneUpMyMac, which is a scam. He recommended MalwareBytes (a good suggestion, by the way).

However, I would not download it from MacUpdate.com, but rather directly from the developer at: https://www.malwarebytes.org/antimalware/mac/. It's usually a good idea to only download any software from the developer's website or the Mac App Store. MacUpdate used to be OK, but around a month ago, they started including adware with certain downloads.

Run EtreCheck again and post the results to see if you removed the adware.

Ok I'll run the Etrecheck again at work tomorrow and post the result.

Also would upgrading to El Capitan help or hinder the Pro based on the above specs?

Thanks

I was hopeful that the antimalware would remove it but from your post it appears my guess there was wrong. Sorry.
